Anywhoo, you win 2.3 bajillion dollars (I.e. enough to have anything you want and never worry about money)

Your 1st 10 purchases.

Go!

1)Car
2)Pay off current car loan
3)House, probably buy land and have it built
4)Pay off student loan
5)Set aside $ for future tuition
6)Computer for husband
7)Nicer furniture/kitchenware
8)The inevitable clothes shopping
9)Somewhere in here my husband will want a new sterio in both cars
10)Invest a nice chunk

I actually had trouble coming up with 10 things. I would probably buy alot of little things that fall into bigger categories, like making my house nicer.

Edit: if it was really a crap load of money, we would pay my husband's brothers college tuition, and help family members out in ways like that.

1. The best computer on the market. (Aliemwear?)

2. Full electronics center. (High Def TV, DVD, etc.)

4. A 15 x 20 ft. bed, just to have it.

5. Olympic sized pool.

6. Tons of clothes. Smiley: grin

7. Thousands of movies and songs.

8. The best comic and TV cartoon artist to tutor me.

Care to answer your own quarry, Nobby? Smiley: smile

1) Buy a fleet of homes all over the USA and in other countries. This way my childrens, childrens, children will reap the benifits of my lotto winnings.

2) Buy a personal plane, which i'd take pilot lessons to fly. I wouldn't always fly it, but i'd like to know how too.

3) Pay off all my debts, all my families debts, and probably acouple of my close friends debts as well.

4) Buy a nice car, one that shows how rich i am.

5) I'd probably buy my own way into fame somehow. Hollywood, New York, Whatever. Just the thought of my name living on forever is kind of cool.

6) Blue Print out a vacation plan which will lead me all over the world. For convenience, prepaid in advance where available.

7) Throw a huge party full of friends, family, and famous people. Have everything free to the guests, and hire my own disk jockey, catering service, and media crew.

8) Spend alot of money on little things to make my life more convenient.

9) Go to a third world country and buy a person i can torcher to death in a dim lit room.

10) Donate to charity for PR.

With $2.3 bajillion, you could probably afford a giant laser to carve your name into the moon a la Chairface Chippendale.

Yeah, but he'd get interrupted partway through and just leave "Pac."

And people would think it was an homage to Pac-Man.

My first ten purchases, of any significance...

1) as it is winter, I would purchase the Range Rover (or whatever they are calling the current model).

2) as you don't have to stay in the snow in winter, I would purchase the new Carrera 4 and drive it to...

3) the summer home on my island in the keys.

4) something sedate for my wife to drive, perhaps an A8L

5) a sailboat, something in the 40 foot range, to sail from my island in the keys to...

6) my slip and condo in Aruba.

7) on returning from vacation sometime in late spring, a home on the Mississippi next to the UofM president's house (very nice places) and have it renovated (including all of the appropriate furnishings, gizmos and gadgets).

8) something appropriate for summer driving, say a convertable Aston.

9) an Indian (and motorcycle riding lessons) to take to Sturgis.

10) the collective debt load of my, and my wife's, family and close personal friends (hey, anything less would be selfish, right?).

umm did you say you wanted to buy Mexico? Or just visit? Seriously, who would want to buy Mexico...
#20 Nov 30 2005 at 8:03 PM Rating: Good
seriously, who wouldn't want to buy Mexico.

I would send everyone to live in Russia (they have room)

Then I have a nice warm country to call my own.

I almost forgot. The winner of the 340 Millon dollar PowerBall jackpot was in my home town. He bought the ticket at the Jacksonville market, but he lives in Medford. I even heard his kids go to school at my old highschool. Now i only wish there was a consolation prize for that...

Twenty family members and friends accompanied Robert and Frances Chaney of Jacksonville , and Steve and Carolyn West of Medford, on Nov. 8, when they received their prize at a special presentation at the Lottery office in Salem .

With only 2.3 brazillian dollars, I'm not sure how much I could get...

Oh wait! You said "bazillion"! Whew...


I'd probably pay off my current home and fix it up really nice. Probably put a huge chunk of it into various investments (land, property, businesses, etc). Leave myself enough to live comfortably on the proceeds of course.

Um. Not much else. I'm not a big fan of travel. Suppose I could throw some parties now and then. Dunno. Can't really think of much.
